Letters: Weather wise

The Met. Office’s claim for 85 per cent accuracy in its forecasts (Forum,
26 June) is rather disappointing. I find I can achieve a comparable degree
of accuracy with one simple rule: tomorrow’s weather will be like today’s.
Since a pattern of weather generally lasts for several days before changing,
this rule provides a high percentage success rate.
